I agree with you Joe. I don't seem to find that much at our local Goodwill stores and I have 4 I can go to!

You are one lucky lady. Not fair...I only have one FW and no table. I'll have to watch for one on CL and local thrift shops.

I think I'm the only one that owns the table without the featherweight. I bought the table for 40 off cragslist years ago not really understanding what machine it was for but still love it. it's small with a drawer and fake drawer and the top opens to both sides to create a long table and the machine fits in the middle. Solid wood as far as I tell. One day i'll come upon a machine I'm sure to put in it!

What great finds. Our Goodwill never has good buys. Guess that's the cost of living in the sticks.

You do have the Midas touch. Those are all great deals and you cleaned them up nicely. I have better luck at garage sales but even those are hit and miss. Enjoy your treasures!

Just to ease the pain a bit...it usually is pretty hit and miss here in Arizona, too...and we're in a relatively small town. My BFF says to go often, as inventory changes every day, but be prepared, as most of the time it's a bust...and you walk out empty handed. I just happen to stop by Saturday of President's Day weekend the day the table was put on the sales floor. I don't think it had been there long. Just the right place at the right time that day. Don't give up...your turn to wear the tiara is coming!
